Regardless of the credibility of OP’s link, you are incredibly naïve if you think there is “no way” a nuke could be set off in the USA. It is less likely than a bio weapon, but the material if not the finished bombs are already here just waiting to be used.

It's not only a possibility, it's inevitable. There was too much loose material and knowledge following the fall of the USSR.

Everyone is concerned over North Korea and Iran, Scientific American released an article in 1995 or 1996 stating there were 80-ish missing backpack nukes.

If the trigger mechanisms were properly maintained, they'd be viable, usable, and easily transported. A backpack nuke is about the size of an EMS (paramedic) Thomas Pack, I had a guy from FEMA tell me this 1998 while at a mass casualty preparedness seminar.

There are strong confirmations that one or more nuclear weapons, known to have been stolen but kept from the public to “prevent panic,” may well be deployed in American cities by extremist elements with probable ties to a foreign intelligence agency.

This scenario was the basis of the television show “Jericho” several years ago. However, this time there are real culprits and real motivations, both the overthrow of the government of the United States and the naming of Iran as a “scapegoat.”

The plot has been tracked to groups within the Pentagon, several government agencies and wealthy and powerful extremist backers of Netanyahu and, in particular, the “Gulf Cartel” operating from Mexico that has penetrated nearly all levels of government, law enforcement and the military across the country.

The average person would not recognize a nuclear weapon. A lot of them don't look anything like bombs.

The best-case scenario for an actual first echelon strike, in a real nuclear war, would be about 1500 warheads detonating inside the US at about the same time. From the time they decide to launch to the time the fate is inevitable is about FOUR MINUTES.

If anyone intends to use a nuclear weapon, it will not be done to kill people but to get a nation to retaliate with full-scale nuclear assault. These dramatic attacks, like 911, are not done to accomplish anything except instigating a fight between larger powers with better weapons.

Would you recognize a deuterium bomb being installed on top of your local news station as a piece of "antenna equipment?"

The news people, the truck driver delivering it, the security personnel, and pretty much everyone else involved would not know the difference between one bulky piece of equipment and another one with a bomb inside.

If the feds were smart, they would have let a whole lot of fake bombs get loose and watch who buys them and where they get sent.

I don't doubt that the threat is very real. I just think this particularly story comes from a crappy Iranian source and is based on a pretty mundane announcement.

You are correct, they would think it was an espresso machine or a snow cone maker.

This wouldn't surprise me. I don't even know if they understand how obvious it would be if they went ahead with it though. People are starting to wise up to this shit now.

you got that from that comedy movie with tom sizemore! what is the name of that movie it was pretty funny?

This is pure misdirection being put out by Obama at the moment to deflect from the plot being put together by the US military to oust him - how else can he explain why the military views him as a traitor - Obama is going to create a false flag nuke and blame it on rogue US military elements!

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28654482

Pray it doesn't happen and that loyal Americans who are in positions to do so can prevent this.

I do think Obama is trying to cover up the fact that so many military personnel know he is a traitor.
